Hi everyone! Good morning. I love Thursday, we're on the down side of this week and it's nearing payday! That's always good, right?
This week's challenge at Delightful Challenges, we're making Halloween Treats. I went with a fun little gable box that I made following a tutorial on SCS. I am so happy that I got the updated version of the Scor-Pal board, because it made it so easy to make it.
Isn't this fun? As I said the Scor-Pal made it so easy to put this box together and of course, I wouldn't use any other adhesive but Scor-Tape to hold it all together. I decorated the box with an image from Halloween Accessories and then added a gift tag that features a sentiment from Halloween Sentiments. This is a perfect size box to fill with chocolates and candy corn.
To color it, I just colored in the grass with a dark green color, gray for the tombstone and yellow for the moon. I then created a mask by printing the image again on a post it note, fussy cut it and then laid it over the main image and began sponging away. It's slightly larger than the moon so that I could get a little moonglow around it.
I am also entering this into The Pink Elephant challenge, they're making Halloween Treats, too. And I'll be barely in time for Crazy 4 Challenges challenge for Sweet Treats. This is a popular challenge, don't forget Raisin Boat is also doing the same theme, too.
